Wow, never heard of that. I thought there was only the 2.0 in other places. Never heard of a 1.8. Sounds pretty shitty.

there isnt any point in putting a b series in a CB....they will hardly pull our cars since civics/integras weigh a lot less then our cars....which is why and H22 would be your best bet...or some other swap that has been done...if you have the money and the willingness and wanna try a b18..go for it...good luck if you do

[ExplodingCake]

Not really.

yeah not really , but an easier alternative than going b18, thats what I meant.

they actually have plenty of torque to pull our cars. sure, it might have a way smaller powerband, but they could easily pull the CB. it's just the amount of work involved in making the swap work in our cars and the minimal results that make the swap not worth it.

check the stats:

F22A1: 137 ft lbf @ 4000 rpm
F22A4: 142 ft lbf @ 4000 rpm

JDM B18C: 134 ft lbf @ 7,300 rpm
USDM B18C5: 127 ft lbf @ 7500 rpm

i didnt know that...but in a sense it would still be pointless wouldnt it...H22 have what 200hp or somethin like that...so that would be the more sense able swap

yeah but look at where the power is at.

i know. i said that the powerband is way smaller. i'm just showing that those engines could pull the Accord along with no trouble if they were installed.

and to 92accordbl, both of the B18C's have around 195 HP or something. not too much less at all.

for our cb7 h22 all the way but for civics and integras b18

[Law Grandeur]

my guess would be since the B series has a ton more market support than the h series does. but the h22 is perfect for the accord. it belongs there!

thanks for that info also i didnt know that...but its still a lot more work and custom shit to put a b series motor in...IMO

Thats my original motor! F18a.

carbie baby!

[deevergote]

The power isn't the reason the B series isn't practical, it's the cost and the amount of custom fabrication needed.


To the original poster, you should do some research before you attempt ANY swap.

no problem. and i agree too. the H22 is the perfect engine swap when it comes to our cars. i was just showing that the B18's could pull them along fine. everyone seems to think the B series doesn't have much torque. turns out they have plenty.

but to the OP, H22 all the way.
